1 FEATURE Selfmade IPTV This is how our test centre looked like for this report. TV from a Network Perfect for a hobbyist to stream audio and video at home A small circuit board is all you need to start your own home IPTV network MPEG2 and VLC licenses must be purchased separately TSReader Pro is used for streaming VLC can also be used Part TELE-audiovision International The World s Largest Digital TV Trade Magazine 11-12/ /2013 TELE-audiovision International 全球发行量最大的数字电视杂志 147
2 FEATURE Selfmade IPTV Vitor Martins Augusto In the first three parts we focused more on the theory of IPTV. In Part 4 we now want to implement an IPTV system. And you don t need all that much: a PC with a digital TV receiver (DVB, ATSC or ISDB) and TSReader Pro would be used as the server. A Raspberry Pi would be used as the IPTV receiver. The biggest problem with implementing IPTV at home is how do you receive and display IPTV on your TV? Of course, you could set up a PC next to each TV but even so-called cheap computers still cost some money and let s not forget the cost of the electricity to run these PCs. So, with all of that in mind, we looked around for some kind of device to use as an IPTV receiver that matched our criteria: cheap, small, easy-to-use and fully featured. After looking at a number of different candidates (from game consoles all the way to a modified AppleTV) we decided on the Raspberry Pi. The Raspberry Pi is a very small computer; the circuit board is not much bigger than a credit card (85.6mm x 56mm x 21mm). Despite its small size, it is a fully complete computer with an ARM processor. It features: - SoC ( System on Chip ): Broadcom 1 2 BCM2835 with an ARM1176JZFS Kernel that runs at 700MHZ and includes a Videocore 4 GPU graphics section capable of decoding H.264 at up to 40MBits/sec. OpenGL ES2.0 and OpenVG libraries are also supported. - B models come with 512MB RAM; currently 1GB RAM versions are also being shipped for the same price. Connections: o SD-Card: used to load the operating system o 2x USB: used to connect a keyboard, mouse, USB sticks, etc. o LAN: RJ-45 with 100MBit/s o Audio: analog stereo output 1. The Raspberry Pi is a small computer with the footprint of a credit card. Still, it features all conceivable connections: - HDMI - Composite Video - Analog Stereo Audio - 2x USB - 1x Micro-USB for power supply - RJ-45 Network - SD card reader On the PCB there are furthermore connectors for digital and analog inputs/ outputs 2. The Raspberry Pi will convert any TV or monitor into a full blown media center when using XBMC. Because the Raspberry Pi is so small, it will snug away behind the TV. If you then use a wireless keyboard with integrated trackball or touch pad, you won t even see any loose cables. 148 TELE-audiovision International The World s Largest Digital TV Trade Magazine 11-12/2013
3 The webpage openelec.thestateofme.com features all published versions of OpenELEC for Raspberry Pi, including Windows-friendly *.img version, which can be easily flashed using Image Writer, whose Windows version is called Win32 Disk Imager. 4. Just download the latest rxxxxx.img.zip File and extract it with your favourite compressing tool. 5. Use Win32 Disk Imager to write the image file onto the SD card. We recommend the use of 8GB SD cards with 6x speed or better. The card is written with 10MB/s which is not that bad. Flashing should take less than a minute. 6. When the flashing is finished, a message box appears. Don t remove the card yet, because we need to write the license keys for the MPEG2 decoder. 7. On the root of the freshly written SD card you will find a file called config.txt. Open it with a text editor (we prefer to use the free Notepad++) and scroll down to the license keys section. Copy & paste the license file you from the Raspberry 6 received Pi store. After completing the purchase our keys arrived about 2 hours later, but the site mentions that it could take up to 72 hours. 5 o RCA Video: analog composite video output o HDMI: for digital audio and video output o Micro-USB: for connection of a power supply The most interesting part about the Pi is its price: officially the Raspberry Pi Model B costs about US$ 35 plus shipping and any applicable taxes. In Europe you can get the Pi for about 35 Euros. Why such a low price? It s because this mini computer was developed by the Raspberry Pi Foundation; their goal is to make a very inexpensive computer available to every child in an effort to get kids at their young age interested in programming just like it was back in the days of 8-bit computers like the Spectrum and the Commodore 64. For everyone else it s just fun to be as creative as you want to be with this little circuit board and develop applications that would previously have been unrealistic because of the costs that would have been involved. The Raspberry Pi is manufactured in cooperation with Farnell and RS Electronics. The little circuit board is powered by a Micro USB power supply, the same kind that is used with today s modern Smartphones. You would also need an SD card. We recommend an 8GB card. A suitable housing can now also be purchased for around 6 Euros and this is probably not a bad idea as it would help prevent any accidental short circuits and also help protect it against any static discharge. We used the Pi for weeks without any housing, repeatedly touching and handling it, and nothing happened to it. Since the circuit board is so small, it can easily be hidden behind any TV. For the keyboard and mouse, a wireless version with both integrated into one unit would be the best option. It would be easy to find a keyboard 150 TELE-audiovision International The World s Largest Digital TV Trade Magazine 11-12/ labeled Multimedia or TV that would have an integrated trackball or a touchpad as the mouse. Very important: in order to keep the price of the Raspberry Pi low, the necessary license to play back MPEG2 content is missing from the Pi even though the hardware is available to do just that. But this is necessary to display IPTV since most of the channels that are transmitted in SD are encoded in MPEG2. In the Raspberry Pi Foundation s webshop you can buy an MPEG2 license for 3.00 Euros. You ll get a key ed to you that will activate this function. This key must be placed in the right spot in the config.txt file on the SD card. From this point on, MEG2 encoded content with hardware
4 8 supported decoding can now also be viewed. In the same way a VC-1 license can be purchased for 1.50 Euros so that the corresponding content can also be viewed. The Raspberry Pi works primarily with a customized Linux Distribution although in the meantime you can get a hold of ready-made firmware files (called Images) with XBMC. The name of this media software stems from the abbreviation for Xbox Media Center : this software was originally developed for the first version of the Xbox. Since then this software has been ported over to every conceivable system including Windows, Linux, MacOS as well as Android and ios. There s no doubt: with XBMC you re talking about one of the best multimedia programs. Nearly every possible format can be played back (audio, video and pictures), there are what seems to be an unlimited number of plugins and using it is easy as pie. If you re not yet familiar with XBMC, you should load it on Windows, MacOS or Linux and take it for a spin. Just like with Linux, there are a variety of different versions of XBMC for the Raspberry Pi: OpenELEC, Raspbmc, XBian, etc. We achieved the best results with OpenELEC. To use the Raspberry Pi with XBMC the following steps have to be carried out: 1) The file with the XBMC image must be downloaded from the XBMC website (see the table of links). 2) Unzip the archive with, for example, WinRAR. 3) Next the *.img file should be flashed onto the SD card using the Win32DiskImager. Make sure that the Win32DiskImager has identified the correct drive for the SD card so that you don t accidentally format the wrong 9 10 drive. 4) Now the config.txt file needs to be edited: the MPEG2 license key must be added in the correct spot. Now the Raspberry Pi can be started and after a few seconds the XBMC interface appears that is very self-explanatory. Important note: when the Pi is started for the first time after the SD card was written to, it is quite normal for the operating sys- 152 TELE-audiovision International The World s Largest Digital TV Trade Magazine 11-12/ tem to automatically restart. When you start it a second time, XBMC will be loaded. The first pass serves to configure the operating system. Therefore, instead of doing it like we did, just wait a little bit: we thought at first that something had gone wrong and promptly reprogrammed the SD card With TSReader Pro it is possible to take the received stream and insert it directly into the network via UDP. The transport stream can either be transferred 1:1 into the network or the integrated Demuxer function can be used. With this function each individual channel in the transport stream can be streamed separately into the network. Since most multimedia devices typically don t come with a Demuxer function, you would not be able to view a transport stream or only one channel in the stream could be displayed without the ability to select any other channel. The same thing happens with XBMC: you try to receive the entire transport stream, but only one channel can be viewed and it s not possible to switch to any other channel. That s why we use the Demuxer function in TSReader Pro so that the desired channels can be streamed into the network via Multicast whereby though for each channel an individual port number is used. In order for XBMC to be able to receive these streams on different ports, we need to create a Playlist in *.m3u format. In this way a list of all the complete channel names appear in a list in XBMC; channel surfing is now fun! The great thing is that you can start multiple instances of TSReader Pro, each with a different tuner (it doesn t matter if it s one PC or multiple PCs don t forget, we re using Multicast), so you can Start TSReader Pro and tune to the desired transponder as usual. 9. Open the Forward menu and select Forward to UDP. On the list in the upper part of the window select each channel you want to stream and configure the respective IP address and port number. You can use the same IP address for all channels, but then you need to use individual port numbers. Remember that the multicast addresses start at and go up to Using a text editor like Notepad++, you need to configure the play list for XBMC, introducing each streamed channel with the respective IP and port. 11. In our first experiment, we streamed four channels and configured the IPTV.m3u file accordingly. Naturally you can name the file as you desire, as long as you keep the *.m3u extension. 12. Not too soon, we wanted to try to increase our IPTV bouquet and added a second TSReader session, this time using a DVB-T tuner. 13. With this TSReader session we were receiving the Portuguese digital terrestrial television, which contains only 4 channels. 14. Each channel was assigned an IP address and an individual port number. 15. Streaming has started. TSReader tracks on how much data has been sent and how many errors occurred /2013 TELE-audiovision International 全球发行量最大的数字电视杂志 153

You can access all functions from here, using the keyboard, the mouse or any other device you connect, including a wide range of remote controllers. 18. The video menu. You can add new folders containing video using the Add Videos entry. These can be folders on the Raspberry Pi or shared folders within the network. 19. Playing a TV channel received over the network IPTV at its best 20. XBMC includes a wide range of configurations for audio and video, 21 including the display of subtitles 21. Zapping can be done using the << and >> buttons or by going back to the playlist. 22. Playing a streamed channel from HOTBIRD 13.0E. 23. This is a different playlist, showing the channels we are streaming from our DVB-S/S2 card. You can have as many playlists as you wish. 24. Zapping between the different channels within the playlist is easy, but naturally you have to expect 2-3 seconds to see the next picture. The reason is the buffering that is required, to ensure that sudden delays within the network traffic don t stop the reproduction TELE-audiovision International The World s Largest Digital TV Trade Magazine 11-12/2013
6 put together an impressive bouquet of channels. For example,we combined several channels from a HOT- BIRD (13.0E) transponder that carries Portuguese digital terrestrial TV. These eight channels were now available throughout the entire house via the network and could be received with the Raspberry Pi as well as other devices (PCs, Tablets, Consoles, etc.) as long as they could work UDP streams. It would, of course, be especially easy if these devices had XBMC installed on them. The *.m3u Playlist format is quite simple and looks like this: #EXTM3U #EXTINF:0,RTP-1 udp://@ :1001 #EXTINF:0,RTP-2 udp://@ :1002 #EXTINF:0,SIC udp://@ :1003 #EXTINF:0,TVI udp://@ :1004 The first line identifies the file as an EXTM3U Playlist and must be available exactly like that. Next there are three lines for each channel: #EXTINF offers Extended Info so that XBMC shows the name of the channel rather than the file name and IP address. After the 0 can be any text you want, in our case we used the channel name. The next line sets up a buffer to prevent the video from being interrupted from brief network hang-ups. With larger values channel surfing would take longer. We used values between 100 and The third line identifies the protocol (udp://@) and the corresponding IP address with port number.) Naturally, these values have to match the IP addresses and port numbers in TSReader Pro. These three lines are repeated for each individual channel. To create and/or edit this file, any preferred text editor can be used since this is nothing more than a normal *.txt file whereby the file suffix is simply changed to *.m3u. We suggest Notepad++; it s an excellent Open Source editor with many functions and Plugins that can also be used as a Hex editor with the proper Plugin. The completed *.m3u file can then be saved to a USB stick and simply plugged in to the Raspberry Pi. You can do this while the Pi is running; XBMC will recognize the USB stick automatically. If you now go to video you can click on the Playlist and then select a desired channel. You can also quickly surf to the previous channel or next channel. The only thing you can t do is select a channel directly by number. You can also choose if you want channels from different transponders - that are being streamed from different instances of TSReader Pro - integrated into one *.m3u playlist or if you d prefer different playlists for different transponders. The configuration described here can also be setup with VLC as the server. This would actually save you some money since VLC has to do with an Open Source Project but it also would involve investing more time compared with TSReader Pro because configuration of VLC servers is not so easy. For example, we were able to stream a DVB-T transponder via VLC but it didn t work at all with a DVB-S transponder probably because the current version might have a problem with DVB-S tuners. If an older version of VLC were to be installed, then DVB-S reception would work but streaming would no longer function. Our conclusion: In general, IPTV is not really all that complicated. We achieved completely usable results and with a 1000Mbit/s network you won t be aggravated by an overloaded network. Through Multicasting you can connect as many receivers as you want and with XBMC you can easily access music and movies all at the same time that are available either on a local USB stick or from the network. In the meantime the Raspberry Fan community have already gotten a number of USB tuners to work which, of course, means that we will also see if we can construct our own Linux Receiver based on the Raspberry Pi. Without a doubt, the Raspberry Pi is an interesting device to build things with and if you work with audio and video you d have a usable platform for very little money. The Raspberry Pi Foundation website. Here you ll find the most important operating system images for download, a Wiki, a forum and documentation. You ll also find new projects introduced here on a daily basis. One of many XBMC distributors for the Raspberry Pi.

This tool writes the firmware image to the SD card. TSReader s website. The professional version is needed for the streaming function. There is a cost involved. If you prefer to use free solutions, you should try VideoLAN s VLC. With this software it s also possible to demux a transport stream and then stream the channels it contains individually via separate IP addresses and/or ports. The configuration is far more complicated though Here you can see both playlists: one for the Portuguese TDT transponder and one for the HOTBIRD 13.0E satellite transponder 26. If you prefer, you can merge the channels of different playlists into a single playlist. Here we see all streamed channels in one single playlist, despite the fact that these channels come originally from different tuners. 27. Naturally, XBMC has many more capabilities. Why not watch a movie? Almost all formats are recognized and supported, including subtitles and multiple audio channels. 28. Time for a break: watching the classic Metropolis. Did you know that this masterpiece can be downloaded for free, because the copyright expired long time ago? 29.
